I joined this jam with the goal of learning how to use the LÖVE2D framework, as well as learn Lua. After seeing my game finally working after ~2 days of coding, I think I have met that goal. :)
Good luck to all finishing up their game jam entries!
I had the same goal for the same ludumdare and I was really happy with the experience of using love. Lua was a bit strange at first because some stuff are unusual (like arrays starting at 1) but overall I like how straightforward everything is.
This is why I participated in this jam. Löve is such a good options for jams
